The Queue: Blue

My favorite color is blue, just like the Blue Man Group.
Emprise asked:
Why do I see multiple loading bars when I'm logging into the game now?
The larger bar is the overall progress in loading the data, the smaller bar is for data that is being downloaded right then and there from the Blizzard servers. This is how it was explained to me, and I've not seen anything that contradicts this.
Dr. Knox asked:
When I logged back in on patch day, got conquest capped, and finally went to purchase my 2ksomething Vicious Gladiator weapon, it turned out to have become a 3ksomething Vicious Gladiator weapon! I didn't see anything explaining this in the patch notes, though it's likely I've missed something. Does anyone have a definitive answer on this?
There's always one of two explanations for this: Either the changes didn't make it into the patch notes, or it's a tooltip bug -- usually the latter (as is confirmed in the comments left yesterday). Blizzard tries hard to include everything in the official patch notes and tries hard to have all the tooltips right, but there are thousands of them, and there are bound to be errors.
Ralethisolur asked:
So I just noticed today on my character sheet. below the AVG ilevel, there is a speed calc thing. This was not stated in any patch notes and wasn't in existence before 4.0.6? Why weren't we told about this?
Same as above -- the change just didn't make it into the patch notes. Neat change, though; thanks for bringing it to my attention. I used to have an addon that told me this, but it's good Blizzard put in in the default UI, too.
Dragonrose asked:
How does Sylvanas' corset stay up?
Matt had it right in the comments: double-sided tape.

Any chance they will change the Lifebound alchemist stone's (380 stam 200-some odd mastery) socket bonus to somthing other than crit? its kinda obvious its that tanking one

I think they won't to be honest. They're all, including the new 1's added, are set in stone, no pun intended.
Zalvi24 Feb 10th 2011 12:03PM
i think the old alchemist stone was intended for pvp, seeing that it has stam and crit bonus
Eirik Feb 10th 2011 1:26PM
Crit is not wasted on tanks.

What I was hoping for was a "trade in" option for those of us with the current stones to trade for the new stones. I think the current stone was made for "useful to everyone but replaced with raid trinkets", and I've got one on a priest and shaman.

Blue isn't bad, but that picture certainly is. Anyone care to caption? =P

Well, sit down my friend cause,
Now's the story of a wealthy family, who lost everything, and one son who had no choice, but to keep them all together.
It's Arrested Development

Never watched Arrested Development? O.o

I'm afraid I just blue myself.
Galestrom Feb 10th 2011 11:24AM
Snap, I figured it was something like that. +1 internetz to you pop-culture savants. =)

The Smurf movie didn't want me as an extra. NOOOO!

oh here he comes, Mr. Tough Guy. Mr. John Wayne. "I'm not gonna cry for my pa. I'm gonna build an airport, put my name on it." Why, Michael? So you can fly away from your feelings?

At least I have Community to ease the pain of Arrested Development being gone...

@Brasso
You buy yourself a tape recorder, you just record yourself for a whole day. I think you’re going to be surprised at some of your phrasing.

I'd like to kiss that man between the cheeks, so to speak.

Mandatory post in the Arrested Development thread of Awesome.
And that's why you always leave a note!

Hey, there's always money in the banana stand.

I'd like to call it an imposition.
